My layout takes place during WW2, so I have modified a lot of 1/43 scale diecast stuff to correctly portray mid-war stateside vehicles. The CCKW and Chevy 1.5-ton trucks are very tough to find and not cheap. I stripped them all and started over. There are those big trucks, a Studebaker US6, two Dodge WC weapons carriers, four WW2 Jeeps and a couple of other vehicles waiting for the proper paint/markings/weathering...









Oh, and let's not forget to include my 1:1 scale 1944 Willys MB (which turns 80 years old today).

As featured in a bunch of magazine articles, including MR a couple of times and the 2024 MR Planning Annual.
